==EVT - Engineering Verification Test==

EVT is performed on first engineering prototypes, to ensures basic unit performance to design goals and specifications include:

* Functional test (basic)

* Power measurement

Line 14 ⟶ 10:

* Basic parametric measurements, specification verification

Identifying design problems and solving them as early in the design cycle as possible, is key to keeping your project on time and within budget. Too often, [[product design]] and performance problems are not detected until late in the [[product development]] cycle — when you're getting ready to ship your product. The old adage holds true: Its costs a penny to make a change in engineering, a dime in production and a dollar after a product is in the field.

In the [[Prototyping]] stage, engineers create actual working samples of the product they plan to produce. Engineering Verification Testing (EVT) is used on prototypes to verify that the design meets pre-determined specifications and design goals. This valuable information is used to validate the design as is, or identify areas that need to be modified.
